Launched in 2021, Culture Connect explores through its Cultural Dialogue Survey series how major contemporary concerns such as rising geopolitical instability, sustainability, and constraints on the mobility of people and objects are impacting different cultural fields and their ability to contribute to the vital circulation of ideas and cross-cultural dialogues that fuel creativity and cultural development.

Cultural Dialogue Survey 2023: The Future of Touring Exhibitions
For the second iteration of Culture Connect’s Cultural Dialogue Survey series, Culture Connect is delighted to have collaborated again with Teo, the Touring Exhibitions Organisation. The global touring exhibitions community was once again invited to answer our Cultural Dialogue Survey 2023: The Future of Touring Exhibitions.
The survey ran from 12 December 2022 to 10 March 2023. The result of this global consultation is a snapshot of initial directions about what the future might look like, taken 2 years after the unprecedented global pause that the COVID-19 pandemic represented. It also shows longer term trends, as we were able to compare to the results of the survey we conducted in 2021, enabling us to better understand the impact the pandemic has had on an industry heavily relying on the mobility of people and objects.
The report findings were also presented by Culture Connect at Teo Live on 11 May 2023.
Cultural Dialogue Survey 2021: The Future of Touring Exhibitions
For this first iteration of Culture Connect’s new series of global surveys exploring the appetite for cultural dialogue across cultural fields, we are delighted to have collaborated with Teo, the Touring Exhibitions Organisation, on writing and inviting the global touring exhibitions community to answer the Cultural Dialogue Survey: The Future of Touring Exhibitions.
The survey ran from 3 December 2020 to 5 February 2021. The result of this global consultation is a snapshot taken 10 months into the pandemic and presented in the report below. It is intended to provide the touring exhibitions community with some initial directions about what the future might look like. The findings were also presented by Culture Connect as a keynote for the event Teo Live on 25 March 2021, and the recording of the full event can be found here.
We hope the report will provide food for thought as well as opportunities to open a constructive global dialogue to imagine together the future of touring and start answering, as our context of globalisation is being put into question, the following questions: How can ideas and cultural dialogues continue when circulation of people and objects are being challenged by lockdowns and environmental considerations? What role might touring exhibitions be able to play for cultural institutions and their audiences in that context and in the future?
